Oculo-orbital developmental disorders
Journal Title: IP International Journal of Ocular Oncology and Oculoplasty - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Developmental disorders of orbit or its contents may occur occasionally as an isolated anomaly or more often gates associated with other nervous system malformations or may occur as part of multisystem syndrome. It includes craniofacial cleft, craniosynostoses and defective development of eyeball. Such developmental disorders are often associated with irreversible congenital blindness. (1) Oculo-orbital developmental disorders represent a challenging management scenario requiring complex, multiple surgeries at different intervals and sometimes suboptimal results may be obtained. Although craniofacial congenital defects are rare but their psychological impact on patients and their families is enormous and lifelong.
